User Reviews

A true and unusual twist on mobster movies

This movie did not get much screen time and no publicity and so very few people have heard of it. But it is actually a true story. There were these two whack jobs who robbed and humiliated the mafiosi at their recreational clubs. As to be expected, it does not end well for the intrepid pair. How and why anyone would decide to do something as harebrained as hitting on some of the most dangerous felons in the world is a story worth telling and watching.

The performances were decent. It was evident that everyone involved in this project thought that it was a movie worth their time and effort.

Pick it up if you want something off beat and different.
